In the war-torn fifth
century, after the end of Roman rule and before King Arthur’s
rise to power, spy and master of disguise Marcus ap Iorwerth
diligently works to place the rightful high king in control of
Britain. One of his duties, discrediting brokers of foreign
mercenaries, leads him to Claerwen, an ethereal woman whose gift
of visions draws him into the path of gods, a destiny as
unshakable as the love they come to share.
In time, they realize
Claerwen has inadvertently become ensnared in a lethal
conspiracy to locate the priceless sacred symbols of Britain’s
high kings. Known collectively as Macsen’s Treasure and lost for
decades, the symbols have become the target of a mazelike
network of unknown enemies seeking power. Claerwen knows nothing
of the treasure and Marcus makes every effort to protect her,
but he is betrayed and disappears. Alone and homeless, Claerwen
must decide whether to believe what everyone tells her, that
Marcus is dead and she should go into hiding, or to follow her
instinct and the path of gods on a daunting quest to find him
and the truth of Macsen’s Treasure.
A blend of Dark Age Britain’s
history, its Celtic roots and the Arthurian legend, Into
the Path of Gods introduces the spectacular four-part
Macsen’s Treasure series set in the volatile years leading
to King Arthur’s rise to power.
